where do you store the pieces

There is a molded section inside the board. The board folds in half (bottom to bottom) and the pieces are kept inside. Fair warning - the plastic molded holder is really cheap. I've commented on this product before and basically I give it maybe a 2 to 2.5 stars out of 5 stars for quality and appearance for the price paid.

The board folds like a book, with the playing surface on the outside. There are shaped holes in felt on the inside for each piece.

The pieces are stored inside the board. There is a spot specific to each piece in a plastic sythetic-felt covered mold which stays in the board. I bought it for my 3 year old (and myself) and we haven't had any problems yet i.e. with the mold popping out or crumbling due to the unbridled strength of a three year old. Personally I love the board and pieces. I believe it will continue to see lots of action for many years to come.

The box it is in is pretty sturdy like a game box and can be used to store it. Inside all the bits and bolts are in sealed bags that are useless once cut open. For my nephew my mother gave him a few ziplock bags of various sizes to store the pieces. We were able to get everything back inside witt no issues and it can be stored like that when not in use.

For a collection of magformers we store them in a metal storage bin. Kids get a kick out of it because they build on the bin.

Each segment is screwed into the corresponding segment on the bottom and top bar. It is not impossible to take them apart and store as smaller segments and would require unscrewing these when assembling and disassembling. When we slide it off we keep it assembled since it is usually only for a portion of the day every so often and isn't convenient enough to take apart.

If you have guitars for show then you may want to place them in glass cases. Otherwise guitars that are played will show some wear. The rack is great and makes my guitars accessible. If you do not plan on playing them, I would suggest using the case they came with (or one you purchased seperately to store them). Just play them and as always have fun my friend!

They are already put together. I bought them as a gift for my mom to use in her living room as storage and what not. Not sturdy enough to sit on or anything but my nieces have turned them into toy chests and they have yet to destroy them :)

The benches are separate from the table. I usually store them upside down on top of the table

The storage case is an accessory that is not necessary but it is a great way to store and keep the pieces organized. I purchased this set for my 6 yr. old grandson so the case helps teach him to keep the set organized. It also helps him to find the individual pieces when building a circuit. Either way you buy it, it's a great item!

can someone provide instructions as to how to fit all the parts in the container for storage?

Yes that is how we used it. The pieces are removable. Great product and price.

Best to store them in zip lock or in container with good fitting lid. Store in cool, dry place.

You could store it in Tupperware or something but my kids play with it in an old cookie sheet and we just put it on the shelf that way.

All the kits come in a sturdy cardboard box with a form fitting foam tray. Each tool has it's nook in the tray. I keep mine in the box, in a drawer in my shop. All in all a pretty sufficient way to store them.

You definitely need the pieces. Each differently colored piece is really several sphere shapes that are attached to each other. They could get lost, but store securely in the kanoodle case when not in use.

It's difficult to store fully assembled since the track doesn't bend sufficiently so that it can be packed into a smaller space. However, you can break it down to smaller sections and those can be stored readily. My 3.5 year old can reassemble them in any way he likes with no problem - he even understands how to use the x-track section so that he has a continuous track. I imagine most kids will be able to do the same.

I place them in an empty Altoids container . Any small metal container will do. Once full, I tape the top closed and put it out for recycling.

We just store ours in the box. There are enough slots in the storage insert for all of the different sets of cards.
